Actual nearshore water temperatures may fluctuate by several degrees from the reported values, especially following heavy rainfall or extended periods of strong winds. Certain wind patterns can cause colder, deeper waters to rise and replace the sun-warmed surface water, leading to noticeable variations.
Our forecast is based on a proprietary mathematical model that considers real-time water temperature changes, historical trends, key weather patterns, wind strength and direction, and air temperature specific to each region. Additionally, we incorporate data from other resorts to enhance accuracy.

The Úhlava River, flowing through the Plzeň Region of the Czech Republic, is a modest-sized river that offers a peaceful setting for outdoor activities. During the summer months, the water temperature typically rises to around 18–21 °C in the shallow areas, which can be refreshing for a quick swim on a hot day. The river’s flow is generally gentle in most parts, making it suitable for wading and casual swimming, though some sections may have stronger currents that require caution.
Access to the river is often via natural banks or small sandy spots, rather than fully developed swimming areas, so swimmers should be mindful of uneven riverbeds and occasional rocks. Despite this, the Úhlava provides a quieter alternative to more crowded reservoirs and ponds, attracting locals who enjoy a more tranquil swimming experience surrounded by greenery.
In addition to swimming, the river is popular for kayaking, fishing, and picnicking along its banks. The combination of calm water sections and scenic surroundings makes the Úhlava River a pleasant destination for a summer outing, especially for those looking to connect with nature while cooling off in freshwater.
